US Life Expectancy Chart

No one likes to think about it, but part of life is death. The looming question is when. Here is a life expectancy guide of the US by state. It's actually not as impressive as it sounds, but it is still informative. I really enjoyed the line chart at the bottom of death probability. I now have yet another reason to move to Hawaii (as if there wasn't reason enough).

  1. Very interesting data. I was expecting a breakdown by state. I'm surprised that around age 70 men and women have the same death rate, since women are more likely to reach extreme ages.
